Original Artwork for the 2014 Westminster Kennel Club Poster will be Raffled at the Cocktail Party

Where The Stars Come Out

The AKC Canine Health Foundation has once again been selected as the recipient of the proceeds from sales of the official poster for the Westminster Kennel Club’s Dog Show. The original piece of artwork, from which the posters are produced, is also being donated to the foundation and will be auctioned off at our Charity Cocktail Party on Saturday, February 8, 2014.

This year’s poster featuring “Where the Stars Come Out” is an original pen, ink and watercolor drawing and was designed and created by artist Chris Duke. In her composition Ms. Duke incorporates the nighttime skyline of Manhattan above the 2013 Westminster Best In Show and Group winners as they run with their handlers. Duke feels this fusion captures the exhilaration and energy of the show, which she loves. In the sky are canine constellations Canis Major and Minor – the stellar dogs that watch over and illuminate the festivities at Westminster. The finished piece is 29.25 inches tall by 38.25 inches wide.

Tickets to the Charity Cocktail party are $150 per person. Raffle tickets are $20 each, or six tickets for $100.
